Oh, and also, I know it's not that intuitive I guess, but when the activity stream tells you that someone replied to a thread, you can hover over the thread title to see a preview of the first post in the thread, and you can hover over the little 'reply' … Read More

I'm not sure about how the name of the thread starter is more prevelant than the title of the thread. Maybe it's just something I need to get used to but as it stands I prefer thread titles to be more viewable than who has started the thread. ![04016f9e42dab9c52c7cd4ca5c24fbf2](/attachments/fetch/L2ltYWdlcy9hdHRhY2htZW50cy8zLzA0MDE2ZjllNDJkYWI5YzUyYzdjZDRjYTVjMjRmYmYyLkpQRw%3D%3D/500 "04016f9e42dab9c52c7cd4ca5c24fbf2") Read More

Oh, and also, I know it's not that intuitive I guess, but when the activity stream tells you that someone replied to a thread, you can hover over the thread title to see a preview of the first post in the thread, and you can hover over the little 'reply' arrow icon to see a preview of the post that was just made.

I'm not sure about how the name of the thread starter is more prevelant than the title of the thread. Maybe it's just something I need to get used to but as it stands I prefer thread titles to be more viewable than who has started the thread.

It's not just who started the thread. The idea of the activity stream is that, instead of a list of forum threads, based on when they were last updated, like every other forum ... this actually tells a STORY about our community.

For example, pritaeas marked a thread solved, markjaiby joined the community, stultuske replied to an exisitng thread, harryroo created a new thread, Rohan_1 gave reputation to Moschops for his post in the go to working thread, etc.

The usernames aren't just the thread starter ... They are actually who the story is discussing. Check this out for more info:
